"new york times" explains we recently killed three kids, an 8-year-old a 10-year-old and a 12-year-old. they explain what the kids were doing. the officials said that the children were killed in a n.a.t.o. strike on sunday afternoon as they were gathering dung to burn as fuel. a common practice in the desert reaches of southern afghanistan where there are few trees. so look, it's tragic that the three kids died. you know what dung is, they have to collect it for energy, unbelievable. it's much, much worse, there is an article in the military times, and lieutenant colonel marion carrington says this about that. it turns out not an accident. we meant to do it. quote, it kind of opens our aperture in addition to looking for military-age males it's looking for children with potential hostile intent. jesus, man what have we become? that is so disturbing. now we're targeting eight-year-olds because we think they might have hostile intent when they were literally picking up dung to make sure that their family had heat. is this america? it's really sick, and we've got to get it under control.

report, a video security camera in new york where a guy walks off the subway takes three steps turns around pulls a gun out shoots a guy in the stomach. i don't know whether he lived or died. it was over a sporting argument, and that wasn't even a one day story. it was one of the most at sounding things i'd ever seen, so it's not just the gut-wrenching tragedy that we saw at newtown. we have to keep speaking out. it's every time the insanity interrupts our lives and ends lives, and so i'm going to keep talking. i'm -- the people in kentucky, again, every other member of the delegation in kentucky, you mentioned senator mcconnell. every other member of the federal delegation has an a rating from the n.r.a. it's very rare they hear anything different than that. it's incumbent on me as the only person who favors gun regulation in the state of kentucky to speak out to others here the other side of the story and i'm going to keep doing that. >> cenk: so that would appear to be somewhat of a politically courageous move in kentucky. you're in a more progressive district, but it is kentucky.
